Dorsal intramedullary spinal epidermoid cysts: Report of two cases and review of literature

Intramedullary epidermoid cysts of the spinal cord are rare tumors, especially those not associated with spinal dysraphism. About 50 cases have been reported in the literature. Of these, only seven cases have had magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies. We report two cases of spinal intramedullary epidermoid cysts with MR imaging. Both were not associated with spina bifida. In one patient, the tumor was located at D4 vertebral level; while in the other, within the conus medullaris. The clinical features, MRI characteristics and surgical treatment of intramedullary epidermoid cyst are presented with relevant review of the literature.     

计算机导航在骨科手术中的应用

目的将计算机导航技术应用于骨科手术,并对其进行初步分析。方法2004年2～12月,计算机导航系统辅助下共行134枚椎弓根螺钉固定,51枚股骨颈骨折空心钉内固定,58枚交锁髓内钉远端交锁螺钉固定。结果所有病例全部在导航下完成手术,术中明显减少C型臂X线机透视次数,未发生血管和神经损伤并发症。结论计算机导航手术安全有效,更有利于微创手术的开展。     

Neuroimaging in Pineal Tumors

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The authors report radiological findings in 11 tumors in the pineal region, which were histologically diagnosed as germinomas, pineocytomas pineoblastomas, ependymomas, teratomas, and astrocytomas. METHODS: Computed tomography (CT) was performed in seven patients and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed in all patients. RESULTS: CT showed a solid or solid/cystic mass with variable contrast enhancement. MRI showed a heterogeneous mass, with hypointense signal on T1 and iso/hyperintense signal on T2-weighted images (WI) and gadolinium enhancement. Extension to adjacent structures occurred in five patients and spread through the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) in two. CONCLUSIONS: Pineal region tumors have no pathognomonic imaging pattern. MRI and CT are complementary in diagnosis and are important to determine localization, extension, and meningeal spread.     

交锁髓内钉治疗下肢长管状骨骨折的效果

①目的 探讨交锁髓内钉治疗下肢长管状骨骨折的效果。②方法 应用交锁髓内钉治疗下肢长管状骨骨折56例，随访8～26个月，观察治疗结果。③结果 56例病人术后对位、对线均满意，股骨骨折平均愈合时间为19．9周，胫骨骨折平均愈合时间为17．7周，2例延迟愈合。无主钉或锁钉断裂．无肢体短缩、功能障碍发生。④结论 交锁髓内钉是治疗下肢长管状骨骨折的一种理想、可靠的内固定方法，其疗效满意，值得临床推广应用。     

早期扩髓髓内钉固定治疗合并胸部损伤的股骨干骨折

目的探讨合并胸部损伤的股骨干骨折早期扩髓及髓内钉固定是否增加并发症及死亡率. 方法采用回顾性对比分析,依据下列标准选择病例(1) 年龄在17～65岁;(2) 必须有胸部损伤[简明损伤定级(AIS)≥2], 且损伤严重度评分(ISS)≥16;(3) 住院时间≥48 h;(4) 病史中无明显影响全身状况的疾病, 如糖尿病, 慢性心、肺、肾功能不全等;(5) 有股骨干骨折, 且进行了扩髓髓内钉固定, 不含钢板、外固定支架或牵引及石膏固定者.并按受伤至手术时间划分为两组, A组为<24 h手术者(早期扩髓组), B组为≥24 h手术者(延期扩髓组),将两组间合并伤情况、ISS、住院时间、ICU时间、并发症、死亡及合并休克情况进行比较. 结果有96例符合上述标准, 其中A组57例, B组39例,经统计学处理, 两组间仅在股骨开放性骨折发生率(A组53%,B组31%,χ2=4.496, P<0.05)、合并休克率(A组51%, B组28%,χ2=4.895, P<0.05 )及住院时间[A组为(17.5±6.5)d, B组为(31.5±9.5)d,t=8.599, P<0.001]上差异有显著性意义和非常显著性意义, 而两组并发症发生率和死亡率等方面比较, 差异无显著性意义(P>0.05). 结论在合并胸部损伤的股骨干骨折中,只要能控制休克,保证生命体征平稳,对股骨干骨折行早期扩髓髓内钉固定不增加患者的并发症发生率及死亡率,并可促进患者早日康复,缩短住院时间.     

逆行交锁髓内钉治疗肱骨骨折

我科2001年1月-2002年12月采用带锁髓内钉逆行穿钉的方法治疗肱骨干骨折23例，疗效满意。     

Intramedullary pilocytic astrocytomas — a clinical and morphological study after combined surgical and photon or neutron therapy

Ten patients suffering from intramedullary pilocytic astrocytomas (WHO-classification: astrocytoma grade I) were investigated catamnesticly. Combined surgery and radiotherapy was performed. Seven patients received neutron irradiation postoperatively. In four cases the neurological symptoms were improved after follow-up periods ranging from 33 to 89 months. The three other patients died after 6 to 21 months. The autopsy findings of a 14 year old child are presented. Our results are compared with reports in the literature. In addition, long-term problems of the spinal column are discussed. It seems that the combined surgical and neutron therapy improves the prognosis of pencil gliomas.     

股骨干骨折内固定术后不愈合27例分析

报告股骨干骨折切开复位内固定术后不愈合27例。其中，17例钢板固定者，只4例符合要求，9例髓内针固定者，有5例针短小。尚伴有固定方法，钢板或髓内针断裂，以及感染等方面原因有。本组再手术26例1次手术治愈，1例2次手术治愈。绝大部分经带蒂骨皮质剥离^[1]和坚强内固定术后而愈合，不需植骨。产生骨折不愈合的诸因素中，以忽视内固定的基本原则与术中操作不当为主。
